The offshore wind market in the U.S. is taking off. To date, 14 leases have been issued by the U.S. Department of the Interior. The Trump Administration has been supportive of offshore wind—as long as it is not subsidized—and contributes to an “all of the above” energy strategy. Further, many east coast states—governors and legislatures—are establishing ambitious goals for offshore wind, specifically, and renewable energy, generally. These goals are contributing to the growing number of leases especially off New York, Massachusetts, Maryland, and Rhode Island. Experienced European developers have also bought many of the leases, bringing their expertise to this new energy platform.
